RESUMO
In this study, we report a novel and efficient one-pot synthesis of mixed phosphorotrithioates under mild conditions at ambient temperature, obviating the requirement for supplementary additives. The method's versatility stems from its utilization of diverse thiols as nucleophilic reactants, 1-chloro-N,N,N',N'-tetraisopropylphosphanediamine [bis(diisopropylamino)chlorophosphine] as the phosphorus precursor, and various sulphenyl chlorides as sources of electrophilic sulfur. Notably, our investigation extends beyond mixed phosphorotrithioates to encompass the synthesis of phosphoroselenodithioates, underscoring the broad applicability of this synthetic protocol.
RESUMO
The ring-opening functionalization strategy in tetrahydrofuran (THF) represents an ideal approach to access different valuable structures. Herein, we report different operationally simple, efficient, unique, and practical regioselective heteronucleophilic ring-opening strategies for the THF system. Tf2O, which is a strong electrophilic activator, was found to generate a THF triflate intermediate that triggers the nucleophilicity of nitriles (Nu1) and led to regioselective ring opening in the presence of different nucleophiles (Nu2). Furthermore, the synthesis of different heteronucleophilic ring-opening dimerization products was attributed to the nucleophilicity of Nu2. We also demonstrated that use of borane-tetrahydrofuran (BTHF) can achieve challenging hydride addition in a similar manner.
